I am so happy to be here with Judith today on our final stop for the Bound by Oath and Honour book tour. For the grand finale, I asked Micah Berrington, the hero of our tale, to come along with me and answer a few questions that some of my readers (thank you so much to those who participated) are dying to know!
So, here we go Micah!
A reader wants to know why you were so upset over having to guard a woman.
Micah chuckles. “First of all, you have to understand that during my centuries as a guardian, I had only protected men who stood in the greatest of danger and in the most perilous of times. Some more so than others.
In direct opposition to that, the women I knew during my mortality didn’t involve themselves in anything I would consider even remotely dangerous. They spent their time doing needlework, overseeing the various duties of the home, and fretting over the latest fashions. I just couldn’t understand the need when the Ealdormen assigned me to Tala. However, once I met her, the need became very clear.”
Did her knack for getting herself into trouble help ease your aversion to the situation?
“Well, that and the fact that she’s the most fearless, most maddening, most amazing woman I’ve ever met.”
I think she’ll be happy to hear you say that—well at least the amazing part! Here’s another question for you. Do prefer working with Levi and Nathaniel above the other guardians in the realm of the Bewitan Fierd?
“I think as a team, we work very well together. We’ve reached a point where we anticipate each other’s needs in connection with our assignments and get them done without need for consultation. So, although I enjoy working with all of my colleagues, I suppose if given the choice, I would opt to work with Levi and Nathaniel.”
What went through your head when you suddenly found yourself in the realm of the Bewitan Fierd, when moments earlier you were fiercely fighting for your life and country in Ireland?
“At first I thought I had died. When I found out that wasn’t so, the shock of where I was, and the choice set before me was staggering to say the least. I have no idea how long I spoke with Edward as he answered every question I had. At the same time he assured me that I had not lost my mind, nor did I lie in a battered tent, sick with delirium. Somewhere along the way I finally accepted the fact I was in another realm, and that my life would continue in a most rewarding direction.”
I take it then, you enjoy being a guardian?
“I wouldn’t trade it or the experiences I’ve had for anything in the world.”
One of my male readers wants to know if the rifle you carried in the story is always your weapon of choice.
“For the most part, yes. The weapon has always served me well. Nonetheless, there are situations my knife and some of the more modern weapons of your time are required.”
For your final question, Judith wants to know if you have a favorite book.
“Hmm. As you can imagine, I’ve read countless books over the centuries and have amassed a pretty good library at home. I have many favorites. One that comes immediately to mind is Common Sense, by Thomas Paine. I’ll also own up to the fact that I really enjoy The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas and have read it numerous times.”
Well thank you Micah, for coming along and answering some of our questions. If anyone else out there has a question for Micah, scribble it in the comments below and he’ll be happy to answer!
Micah Berrington, elite guardian from the realm of the Bewitan Fierd, is used to protecting men of strength in the greatest of peril, not a female looking for someone to repair her home. Yet the assignment is far more than it seems and so is the beautiful woman destined to capture his heart, regardless of the cost.
“I’m not leaving until you tell me whatever it is you don’t want me to know.” She set her heels, and placed a hand on her hip.
His anger flared. “Is that right? A little while ago you couldn’t wait to leave this place.”
Tala gave her head a snooty little toss. “A lot has changed since then, wouldn’t you agree?”
He brushed the barb aside. “Then let me get you a pillow and blanket. You can make yourself comfortable on my sofa.”
Indignation filled her lovely eyes. “That’s it? That’s all you’re going to say? Really?”
Micah met her gaze without a flinch. “Really.”
“Whatever.” She gave him a curt nod and stormed toward the door.
He had fallen into the deep, dark abyss of the feminine whatever. Nonetheless, he stepped in front of the entryway blocking her path. “Where are you going, Tala?”
“Back inside the forest, not that it’s any of your business.”
“Why would you do something as foolish as that?”
“To find some answers, since you’re unwilling to share what you know.” She gritted her teeth. “Now, get out of my way.”
He held his ground while disregarding the directive. “Just what do you expect to find out there?”
She shrugged away the question. “I’m not sure. However, I do know those creatures left tracks. I’m quite adept at finding and following them to wherever they might lead. Trust me.”
“Regardless of the danger?”
“I can take care of myself.”
